brass & glass stoper? - 4/27/2005 11:07:17 PM    Trying not to break it Posts: 2306 Joined: 12/18/2004 From: balt. md. Status: offline hi everyone, i found this tue. it was very close to a milk bottle i found. the glass is 1 3/8" across and tapered. the brass is 1 1/2" across, there is some very small writing on top but i can' make it out. it does fit in the milk bottle, but i have not seen one on display in a bottle. any help with this is greatly appreciated. rhona Attachment (1) Post #: 1
